3. Queer Eye’s Jonathan Van Ness had the best reaction to being nominated twice

Fourteen years ago, Queer Eye For The Straight Guy won an Emmy and this year, Netflix’s heart-warming reboot Queer Eye earned an impressive four nods.

However, the makeover show’s grooming specialist, Jonathan Van Ness is also nominated for his Funny or Die web series, Gay of Thrones, and he celebrated in the most Jonathan way possible.

We’d normally need at least six coffees to get this level of excited.

He wrote on Instagram: “This is incredible, so many thanks so much love, here is to all our dreams.”

4. The Netflix and HBO battle continues

Shows like 13 Reasons Why, The Crown, Stranger Things, The Good Place and countless others have helped Netflix become a seriously big cheese in the broadcast world in recent years.

As a result, the streaming service has broken HBO’s 17-year reign of being the most nominated network.

Netflix has 112 nominations while HBO received 108 – including nods for shows like Game of Thrones and Westworld.

“It feels like it happened quickly, but it was also a long time coming,” said Wired.

“Every year since 2013, when Netflix gained entry into the ranks of prestige television by earning a now-meager-seeming 14 nominations for its original programming, the service’s ascent has been written on the wall.”
